ARN

This has changed a little now as the station launches a new KIIS national drive show, a new KIIS Melbourne breakfast show and awaits the arrival of its new Melbourne breakfast host.

In Sydney, ARN remains the #1FM station and both #1FM and #2FM breakfast shows with KIIS 1065’s Kyle & Jackie O and WSFM’s Jonesy & Amanda.

In Adelaide ARN remains the #1 overall station and breakfast show with Mix102.3’s Jodie and Soda.

ARN’s CEO Rob Atkinson said: “Last year we put in place a bold plan for our network to cement ARN as innovative market leaders in entertainment. It’s a long-term strategy to create the future of audio entertainment for our customers and listeners and given the changes that were made in the Melbourne and Perth, we anticipated it would take time for these markets to settle.

“We have total confidence in the talent, their chemistry and the shows we have put in place in all markets. We expect to see growth in audiences, share and engagement in coming surveys, complemented by our dedicated focus on our digital and social strategy including iHeartRadio with over 1m registered users.”
